A Good Project in View.

The warm interest manifested in the
community over the conference held here
Friday, Saturday and Sunday of the
Young Mems Christian Associations, was
great surprise to our people, most Of
whom, doubtless, had prepared themselves
for failure and disappointment in the
work laid out by the conference. A
spirit, however, was shown which, if pro-
perly guided and directed, it is firmly be-
lieved, would result in the attainment of
the end desired to be reached through
the agencyof the Young Mems Christian
Association. That the work which the
association sets out to do is necessary in
Watertown, cannot be denied Our young
men are in need of just such guidance
and help as the Young Mems Christian
Associations would place before them
The amount necessary to organize and set
in motion an association having the aims
and purposes here outlined, would be one
of the best investments that could be
made for the benefit of our city generally.
One of our wealthy men has pledged him
self to subscribe literally to this object,
and it is understood that number of
others are willing to follow his example.
At the close of the meeting Sunday after
noon at the Congregational church the
following committee was appointed to
| look into the feasibility of organizing an
association in this city: j. B. Bennett,
w. G. Stone, H. j. Kuhn, w. Gruetz-
mscher, NJ Biefeld, r. Brennecke, G. G..
Eaton, J. Gamm.

OBITUARY.

The Red Oak GowaI Express contains
the following obituary notice of an old
Watertown resident, which will be read
with deep sorrow by large circle of
friends here:
Mrs Lovila NJ Cady, wife of the late
A. F Cady, died at her home in Red
Oak, Iowa, March 80, 1887, aged 81 years,
months and days. She leaves three
children-Mrs Ida Hesler, of Red Oak,
Mrs K. Packard ard Mr.. \. E. Cady, of
St. Paul, .Neb. She was born in Den
mark, Lewis county, N. Y, in 1920; was
married in 1913 and removed with her
husband to Milwaukee. Wis, where her
children were born Mr. and Mrs. Cady
came to Red Oak from Wisconsin ten
years ago, that they might be near their
children who had all come West. During
the last sickness the son visited her as
often as possible and her daughters were
with her through all the illness, which
continued for nearly six months. Not
only her children, but many others can
never forget the Christian patience and
composure with which she endured her
sufferings. She often expressed a desire
to depart to be with Christ, to whom in
early life she had consecrated herself.
She was a member Of the Congregational
church in Red Oak. The three children,
with others of their families, were present
at the funeral services. Mrs. Cady will
be greatly missed by large circle OF
warm friends; but they know that in the
